I'm stuck. I keep coming back to Tiger Woods for #4 because he has a "T" - and woods, for that matter - in his name, but I can't make anything of "IGER". Does a "happy ending" mean a "Y", or something else?

I shouldn't be too hard on myself if I were you, Rimbaud; it takes me ages to think up mine. Most of us have been practicing on the Cryptic Clues thread for a while now, so perhaps you'd like to join us.

It's good to see that the game is going well now. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Try this one:

(1) Forlong the Fat(Protractedly thick, before being cut down in the field.)
(2) Eru(Singular composer.)
(3) Anar(Fiery offspring of Yavanna and Nienna.)
(4) Where the first long drive occurred?
(5) The Ring-bearer stepped into his shoes.
(6) Roheryn(Don't look this in the mouth.)
